next time let us know that you are using a Mac sooner.

Oh my god! You mean, you didn't say "but I have a Mac, " in the first minute of the conversation? No, of course not. ::rolls her eyes::

If this conversation had been held in person, I'd probably have to pick up my laptop and brain him over the head with it, but then, with a mind that dense he probably would have broken it. Good grief!

Interesting. Sounds like that person was even less helpful than the people at Dell who kept telling me it wasn't my harddrive that was the problem. ^_^

And I am still not convinced that Macs are better.

Heh, thanks for the info. I just never got to know Macs. I know PCs pretty well, at least, much more in depth than I know Macs. But it was kind of hard at school because there was a surplus of Macs and not all that many PCs. ^_^

Depending on when you were in school, they may or may not have been UNIX-based. UNIX-based MacOS X was released in 2000, and only works on G4-based Macs and up. Prior to that, they were still (loosley) based on the original Xerox Parc OS, the non-UNIX style OS that most people still think of when they think Mac.

Reminds me of the time a guy asked if UNIX (actual UNIX, not Linux or xBSD/MacOS or one of the licensed UNIX OS derivatives) ran on Windows NT. During a job interview. For a SysAdmin position.
